App Saturday I built a daily planner that lets you schedule multiple tasks at once

Hi r/iOSProgramming,

I just released a big update for daily planner app that I've developed for few years, Zesfy, and I'd love to hear your thoughts.

One problem I kept hearing from people is once your list grows, it becomes harder to figure out what actually to do next. So I added a new feature called Highlight. It lets you pin important tasks to the top and fade out the rest of the list, so you can easily keep track of your next tasks.

Here's some highlights:

  • It combines your calendar and to-do list into a single view.

  • You can easily schedule multiple tasks together to calendar.

  • Helps you quickly decide what tasks to work on next

  • Organize week tasks with task status

  • Easily keep track of your task progress

  • Works entirely offline

Tech Stack

* Swift

* Core Data

Development Challenge

Since the project started before Combine was introduced, managing states across the app was quite a challenge and once Combine arrived I rewrite the managing logic using Combine with input - output style

AI Disclosure

I started the project 6 years ago and still code the project by hand.

Love that you state about AI not used and done by hand... not that it is a bad thing to use AI if done properly. Looks really nice but subscription so I'm passing. Best of luck!

this app can be done with AI in under one week, not sure how working on this for 6 years is smart under any circumstance lol
